Ten years after the fire on the Norman Atlantic ferry, a documentary recounts the days of the disaster in which 31 people lost their lives, 19 of whom remain missing. The film tells the story of the shipwreck through the voices of survivors and rescuers.
"Norman Atlantic" stands out for its use of previously unseen archival material: exclusive footage of the most critical moments and the initial inspections of the ship destroyed by the flames. It is not merely a reconstruction but a firsthand account that weaves together stories of fear, hope, and solidarity. An event that, ten years ago, captured global media attention and is now explored with a unique approach.
